[PATCH v2] x86: add noreturn in a few more places
Posted by Jan Beulich 2 weeks, 3 days ago
start_secondary(), do_double_fault(), play_dead(), and tboot_s3_error()
never return, so would better be annotated anyway.

context_switch() and continue_running() are odd: We can't
(unconditionally) add noreturn to their declarations, as Arm's variants do
return. Put the attribute on x86'es definitions instead (the use of
unreachable() in reset_stack_and_call_ind() allows the compiler to figure
that out itself, but Eclair wants the annotation in addition).

Note that adding "noreturn" to do_double_fault() causes new violations of
the same rule (2.1) at the two call sites in entry_from_{pv,xen}().

entry_from_pv() wants the annotation only when PV=n, yet once added gcc
then warns about "return" being used in a "noreturn" function. Is there
any other approach to address this besides adding #ifdef inside the
function (i.e. replacing the !IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PV) check that's there)?
Perhaps need to deviate it?

v2: Drop entry_from_{pv,xen}() changes, for being controversial.
